The total number of genera, species and infraspecific taxa currently accepted is 60, 118 and 2, respectively. The occurrence of each taxon in the North Aegean, South Aegean and Ionian Seas is given. Knowledge gaps are pointed, with 70 taxa pending confirmation of their presence marked. Moreover, 15 excludenda and 20 inquirenda taxa are briefly discussed. In this paper is given an updated base of the Ceramiales taxa occurrence in Greece, needed for future targeted seaweed studies.

Silva Festschrift Marine Algal (Seaweed) Collections at the Natural History Museum, London (BM): Past, Present and Future Ian Tittley Department of Botany, The Natural History Museum, London SW7 5BD ABSTRACT The specimen collections and libraries of the Natural History Museum (BM) constitute an important reference centre for macro marine algae (brown, green and red generally known as seaweeds). The first collections of algae were made in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and are among the earliest collections in the museum from Britain and abroad. Many collectors have contributed directly or indirectly to the development and growth of the seaweed collection and these are listed in an appendix to this paper. The taxonomic and geographical range of the collection is broad and a significant amount of information is associated with it. As access to this information is not always straightforward, a start has been made to improve this through specimen databases and image collections. A collection review has improved the availability of geographical information; lists of countries for a given species and lists of species for a given country will soon be available, while for Great Britain and Ireland geographical data from specimens have been collated to create species distribution maps. This paper considers issues affecting future development of the seaweed collection at the Natural History Museum, the importance and potential of the UK collection as a resource of national biodiversity information, and participation in a global network of collections.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract An ongoing phycological survey in the Laje de Santos Marine State Park (LSMSP) of São Paulo in southeastern Brazil revealed a previously undescribed species of Osmundea (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae), which was found in the subtidal zone at a depth of 7 to 20 m. Morphological studies conducted on Osmundea specimens collected in the LSMSP revealed characteristics typical of the genus Osmundea, including two pericentral cells per each axial segment and tetrasporangia cut off randomly from cortical cells.

ISABEL MENESES 2 ABSTRACT: Ceramium is widely distributed and recorded from the coasts of the North Pacific Ocean. Thus, it is not surprising to find new species and new records of this genus among the numerous islands spread in this oceanic region. Extensive examination ofmaterial collected around O'ahu and other Hawaiian Islands has yielded two new records: Ceramium aduncum Nakamura (pre­ viously known from Japan), Ceramium clarionensis Setchell & Gardner (pre­ viously recorded for the Pacific coast of Mexico), and a new species, Ceramium cingulum Meneses.

    HELGOLANDER MEERESUNTERSUCHUNGEN Helgol~inder Meeresunters. 42, 133-163 (1988) The deep-water macroalgal community of the East Florida continental shelf (USA)* M. Dennis Hanisak & Stephen M. Blair Marine Botany Department, Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution; 5600 Old Dixie Highway, Fort Pierce, FL 34946, USA ABSTRACT: The deep-water macroalgal community of the continental shelf off the east coast of Florida was sampled by lock-out divers from two research submersibles as part of the most detailed year-round study of a macroalgal community extending below routine SCUBA depths. A total of 208 taxa (excluding crustose corallines) were recorded; of these, 42 (20.2 %), 19 (9.1%), and 147 (70.7 %) belonged to the Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta, and Rhodophyta, respectively. Taxonomic diversity was maximal during late spring and summer and minimal during late fall and winter. The number of reproductive taxa closely followed the number of taxa present; when reproductive frequency was expressed as a percentage of the species present during each month, two peaks (January and August) were observed. Most perennial species had considerable depth ranges, with the greatest number of taxa observed from 31 to 40 m in depth. Although most of the taxa present also grow in shallow water (i.e. <10 m), there were some species whose distribution is hmited to deeper water. The latter are strongly dominated by rhodophytes. This community has a strong tropical affinity, but over half the taxa occur in warm-temperate areas. Forty-two new records (20% of the taxa identified) for Florida were listed; this includes 15 taxa whicl~ previously had been considered distributional disjuncts in this area.

The number of species and infraspecific taxa of this group accepted for the Mediterranean Sea as currently recognised taxonomically is 271. This list has benefited from the suggestions on taxonomy, nomenclature and regional distribution made by phycological advisers for each region. Introduction (Gallardo et al. 1993).

  • Taxonomic Assessment of North American Species of the Genera Cumathamnion, Delesseria, Membranoptera and Pantoneura (Delesseriaceae, Rhodophyta) Using Molecular Data
    Research Article Algae 2012, 27(3): 155-173 http://dx.doi.org/10.4490/algae.2012.27.3.155 Open Access Taxonomic assessment of North American species of the genera Cumathamnion, Delesseria, Membranoptera and Pantoneura (Delesseriaceae, Rhodophyta) using molecular data Michael J. Wynne1,* and Gary W. Saunders2 1University of Michigan Herbarium, 3600 Varsity Drive, Ann Arbor, MI 48108, USA 2Centre for Environmental & Molecular Algal Research, Department of Biology, University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, NB E3B 5A3, Canada Evidence from molecular data supports the close taxonomic relationship of the two North Pacific species Delesseria decipiens and D. serrulata with Cumathamnion, up to now a monotypic genus known only from northern California, rather than with D. sanguinea, the type of the genus Delesseria and known only from the northeastern North Atlantic. The transfers of D. decipiens and D. serrulata into Cumathamnion are effected. Molecular data also reveal that what has passed as Membranoptera alata in the northwestern North Atlantic is distinct at the species level from northeastern North Atlantic (European) material; M. alata has a type locality in England. Multiple collections of Membranoptera and Pantoneura fabriciana on the North American coast of the North Atlantic prove to be identical for the three markers that have been sequenced, and the name Membranoptera fabriciana (Lyngbye) comb. nov. is proposed for them. Many collec- tions of Membranoptera from the northeastern North Pacific (predominantly British Columbia), although representing the morphologies of several species that have been previously recognized, are genetically assignable to a single group for which the oldest name applicable is M. platyphylla.

  • Delesseriaceae, Rhodophyta), a Marine Red Algal Parasite of Acrosorium Polyneurum Okamura from Japan
    Bull. Natl. Mus. Nat. Sci., Ser. B, 44(4), pp. 147–151, November 22, 2018 First Record of Gonimophyllum buffhamii Batters (Delesseriaceae, Rhodophyta), a Marine Red Algal Parasite of Acrosorium polyneurum Okamura from Japan Taiju Kitayama Department of Botany, National Museum of Nature and Science, Amakubo 4–1–1, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305–0005, Japan E-mail: [email protected] (Received 27 August 2018; accepted 26 September 2018) Abstract An unusual red alga, Gonimophyllum buffhamii Batters (Delesseriaceae, Ceramiales, Rhodophyta) was collected from the Boso Peninsula, Chiba Prefecture, Japan. This species, which has been known as an adelphoparasitic alga living in relation to the several genera of the family Delesseriaceae, was found firstly on the thalli of a red alga Acrosorium polyneurum Okamura (Delesseriaceae) in the coast of Japan. Male gametophyte plants and female gametophyte plants of the species were observed, while no tetrasporophyte plants were collected in this research. This is the first record of this genus from Asia, and also the first report on this species from the Pacific Ocean. Key words : Acrosorium polyneurum, algal parasite, Delesseriaceae, Gonimophyllum buffhamii, Japan, Rhodophyta. In the end of the 19th century, the marine red established by Wynne (2001) as a suprageneric algal genus Gonimophyllum (Cryptopleureae, taxon below the family Delesseriaceae including Delesseriaceae, Ceramiales, Rhodophyta) was Cryptopleura Kützing (type genus), Acrosorium established by Batters (1892) on the basis of Zanardini, Botryoglossum Kützing, Hymenena Gonimophyllum buffhamii Batters (type species), Greville, and Gonimophyllum Batters: the hosts which was found on the thalli of “Nitophyllum of G. africanum are Acrosorium maculatum laceratum (S.G.Gmelin) Greville” (＝Crypto- (Sonder ex Kützing) Papenfuss, Botryoglossum pleura ramosa (Hudson) L.Newton) by T.
